Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

Re: Judge denied statement he made in Court Transcript

Your sentencing judge, apparently, has already repeatedly clarified precisely what he had intended your sentence to include which is what, apparently, you have served(and paid in terms of restitution). The fact that the judge may have misspoke when he actually handed down the sentence and used the incorrect conjunction is not the controlling consideration here in this situation but whether in fact you received the sentence which he had intended to give you that was commensurate with the law and facts applicable to your case.

And, incidentally, a period of two years minimum

supervised probation and restitution of the amount

found to have been illegally taken is pretty much standard for felony offenses in the Commonwealth involving grand larceny, embezzlement, or obtaining money under false pretenses, etc.

These kinds of sentences typically include whatever jail time is imposed and suspended, if any, followed by the term of supervised probation and(rather than or)the amount of the required restitution(to be paid by a certain date).

As for bringing suit against the judge, in light of the foregoing, I would assume that you would agree that nothing further needs to be said on this issue.
